Molly's Point of View
I'm sitting on Mommy's lap, helping her with a word search when Daddy tells me to go to bed. "I've been through a traumatic experience. Can't I stay up just a little bit longer?" I pleaded. Daddy rolls his eyes. "Sorry Mol. Traumatic experiences have never got me out of bedtime. It won't keep you from it either. Your mother and I will be in your room soon to tuck you in. Until then, get ready for bed and settle down." Daddy said.
I went to my room to find a new nightgown on my bed. There was also a new toothbrush and a tube of toothpaste. I guess we couldn't get my clothes or belongings. I put on my nightgown and then brush my teeth in my own personal bathroom. Yeah, if having my own room wasn't cool enough, I have a bathroom all to myself. After I was done, I sat on my bed waiting for Mommy and Daddy.
'Hello again.' A voice says. I almost scream, but then I realize that it's Light. "Oh. You're in my head now. Hello again. Are you gonna stay in my head forever now?" I asked. 'Yes dear. I'm going to be inside you for your entire life. But you don't have to worry. I won't control you unless it's necessary." Light explained. "I'm not worried. Although could you take control of me when I'm eating my vegetables? That's absolutely necessary. Your main job is to keep me safe, right? You would be saving me from torture." I asked. "My, you are a funny one. No dear. I can't take control of your body because of such frivolous things.' Light laughed. "Why not?" I huffed. 'First of all, don't use that tone of voice with me. You will not raise your voice when speaking to me. Is that clear?" She asked. "Yes ma'am." I replied. 'Good. And secondly, if I take control of your body too much or too often, you will get very sick and eventually die. But don't worry. It won't come to that. I won't allow it.'
Just then, Mommy and Daddy came in my room. 'Tell your parents that I'm sorry for scaring them and I'll try not to do it again, would you?' Light said. I wish I could just not. I don't want to be a middle man (or in my case middle girl) for Light, but I could tell that it wasn't a request. 'Look, some things are just going to have to change. Now say it.' Light insisted. You can read my thoughts? 'Yes dear. Please tell them.'
"Light says that she's sorry for scaring you and she'll try not to do it again." I huffed. Mommy and Daddy looked at each other. They seem concerned. 'What did I tell you about that tone of voice.' Light grumbled. "I wasn't talking to you." I scoffed. "Molly, are you okay?" Daddy asked putting a hand on my shoulder. I'm far from it. Light has taken over my brain and I can't stand it. I can't be a perfect little girl 24/7. 'You don't have to be. Just do your best.' Quit invading my privacy!
"No." I uttered. That was when I burst into tears. Mommy and Daddy hugged me close while Light gives me a lecture on not shouting at her in my head, which I'm not listening to by the way. Oh great. Now she's even more enraged. Perfect.
Even Light has its downside. Poor Molly.
Ruby Rose and Her Cookies: That's okay. If you ever want to join a new one, the offer still stands. If not, then that's okay too. Yeah, Darkness is definitely a pain.
